Thus Spake Utilitas

And so it was in the time of high charges for the governed

 upon entering the Narthex of the church

 of the Cold Blue Static Balls of Charge, 

 powerful PUBLICUS UTILITAS proclaimed: 


“Make way; for I’m the journeyman directorate

 of the all powerful Red Hot Orange Conglomerate,

 here to ground your independent shorts

 unto our power grid.
 

Let the word go forth from this time and place,

no longer will you be able to reverse the 

flow to lessen your monthly burden.”


And so it goes from that day to this!
